    VSCode is a modern emacs. Similar concept, a single editor to do everything via extensions. That's the selling point. "young people" never had the chance to work with a similar concept, this is why they found it so revolutionary (despite being a concept from the 70s).

    I use it because I am forced to use a windows laptop at work, and emacs on windows is a painful experience
